Wanted to post pics of my new milkweed garden. Most of the "barrel staves" have seedlings in them of the larger milkweeds. I'm starting curassavica and the narrow-leaf milkweeds in pots that I can move in and out of the secured cat enclosure, the enclosure is 4'x4'.
Second pic is of my "blue milkweed", Tweedia caerulea. This one I started a year ago and it survived freezing temps this past winter. I'm looking forward to lots of seeds to share.
Lastly, here is my "nectar" garden. This is a before pic, there are lots of seeds and seedlings in this little area. I have passion vine started on the fence and lots of agastache and other perennials coming up from roots.
